Weekly Wishes

I had a great weekend, but I am not really in the mood to do a weekend recap today. So instead, I have decided to participate in a weekly wishes link-up over at the Nectar Collective. I think this a great way to give myself some short term goals for the week.

-Make new friends. I know this may sound dumb, but I have lived in Fort Collins for over a month, and I haven't made any new friends, unless you count the janitors at work. But still, I do not really hang out with anybody on the weekends so I need to make more of a point to make some new friends. I have a retreat/orientation for my department this weekend so hopefully I can make some friends there.

-Write my book club posts for Life of Pi and The Help. I have these posts half written, but I have yet to sit down and finish them.

-Enjoy the beauty of nature. This past weekend, Noah and I camped stayed in a cabin in Poudre Canyon, and all weekend I was amazed by the beauty of nature surrounding me. I don't know if there will ever be a day when I am not in awe of these mountains. The mountains are beautiful but so are all the plants and creatures around me. I just need to be more aware.
